Backstreet Boys star Howie Dorough marries girlfriend

Posted by

Howie Dorough and Leigh BonielloBackstreet Boy Howie Dorough and given all he has to give – and married his long time girlfriend.

The boy band star said “I do” to Leigh Boniello at St. James Cathedral in his hometown of Orlando, Florida, on Saturday, according to US magazine OK Weekly.

Leigh reportedly strolled down the aisle to the sound of trumpets and met her groom, who was wearing a tuxedo.

Father Michael Gonzalez performed a traditional Catholic ceremony, which featured a reading by Howie’s sister Angie, while his other sister Pollyanna sang ‘Ave Maria’.

Howie’s fellow Backstreet bandmates also attended the ceremony.

Howie, 34, proposed to Leigh last New Year at her family home in New Jersey. “She wasn’t expecting it and I was quite nervous – more nervous about proposing to her in front of 40 family and friends than about performing in front of 40,000 people on stage,” he told People magazine earlier this year.

The couple met in 2000 when Leigh, now a real estate broker, was working as the Backstreet Boys’ Webmaster.

The band are currently promoting their sixth studio album, Unbreakable, which was released in October.
